Jen R.:

If you want to read some interesting discussion about why Percy 
acted the way he did in OOTP, there were a couple of threads in 
Sept.:

Everything from Spy!Percy, Polyjuice!Percy, to 'Percy's a git'. A 
few of us got together off-line and tried to come up with one 
theory, but couldn't agree on which one! So, the TBAY movement died 
out.

Jen: I would say that's definitive evidence that Percy didn't plant 
Scabbers on Ron!
